Frequently Asked Questions

Before you call our repair engineers, prepare yourself by reading through some frequently asked questions.

Why has my washing machine stopped spinning?

Check to see if your load is too small. Sometimes, if you’re trying to wash a small load or even a single item, the electronics in your appliance will pick this up as a risk because they could spin off balance and damage the machine through erratic vibrations. This is also true of overloading your machine. Adjust your load and try again. If the problem persists, give us a call.

Why won’t it drain?

This can be a common problem with a simple solution. You will need to access the drain hose by pulling your machine out and draining it down. This should fix the problem, but if it doesn’t or you’re not confident enough, please don’t hesitate to give us a call.

Why won’t the drum turn?

There are several reasons why a drum won’t turn. This could be due to worn out brushes, problems with the belt or motor, or even a damaged motor controller. It’s always best to call an expert in this case, as there could be an underlying issue that needs to be resolved by a professional.

Why is it noisy?

The answer to this could be one of three reasons. Firstly, there could be something stuck in the drum. Secondly, you could have failed bearings and finally there might be something stuck in the drain pump. Our professional engineers will be able to spot which is the correct problem and resolve it for you.

Why does my washing machine bounce?

This could be due to poor installation. As well as repair, our engineers are able to properly install your appliance so that it stops bouncing about.
